Our Story
Their calling is clear. So is ours.
Rivergate Foundation stands in the financial gap for Christian missionaries and church staff, so the people who give their lives to the mission never have to choose between their calling and their family's future.
Our mission
Care for the people who carry the mission.
Christian leaders answer a call that asks a great deal of them, and quietly asks a great deal of their families. The costs rarely show up in a sermon or a newsletter: a child's education, an emergency that a ministry salary cannot absorb, the years after decades of service when very little was ever set aside.
We exist to meet those needs in practical, personal, accountable ways. Not as a replacement for a family's church or support network, but as the people who come alongside them when the gap is real.

Our vision
A network where no family is left to carry it alone.
We want a day when a Christian missionary or church staff family facing an unexpected need does not wonder whether help exists. They already know: a community is standing behind them, ready to respond.
That is what generosity, organized well, can do. It turns scattered goodwill into support that arrives on time.
How we do it
Three needs, met with intention.
Urgent need
The Jubilee Fund
When a crisis arrives, we rally support around the family so the need is met without delay.
